While we are all worrying about how these things are going to effect our investments, we might be forgetting the larger purpose.
Sometimes it is healthy to remind ourselves... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L40N-zOV0mM
So we can ask ourselves..."what are we willing to give, for real freedom."
Notice how everyone simply sits and watches. Would you? Or would you do something? I think...we are here...to do something.
From the day I read the first Invictus web pages....the ones with the knight and the windmill....I completely bought into the idea that some incredibly clever people cared about the principals I value and were going to use Satoshi's invention and their ingenuity to build technology and networks that would manifest Satoshi's dream. I believe the dream was to forever alter the structure of humanity by providing a tool that resists corruption over time and enables our societies to completely reorganize our resources and priorities, unfettered by a corrupting influence.
What will this accomplish? It's almost unimaginable. Appropriate allocation of capital, preservation of finite resources, unlimited innovation, new levels of education, a breakdown of tribal societal structures, no more war......
I genuinely couldn't care less what allocation I get if Bitshares can move us even a small way towards that goal. I trust BM to be as fair as possible. I promise right now that I will not complain regardless of the final decision. I will not look back and analyse what might have been. I feel honoured to be even the tiniest part this. I want our children to grow up in peace and explore the universe.
What we build today in Bitshares could literally echo through eternity and for once, that echo might fill our progeny with pride and love.
